A Massachusetts man was sentenced to nearly 4 years in prison for a federal firearm charge in a court in Maine.
Jamie Figueroa, 22, of Lawrence, Massachusetts, was sentenced to 46 months of imprisonment to be followed by three years of supervised release for possession of a firearm by a felon, according to United States Attorney Thomas E. Delahanty II.
Figueroa, a convicted felon since 2012, pleaded guilty to the charge on November 26, 2013.
According to court records, Figueroa was arrested by Windham, Maine police officers on September 2, 2013, after responding to a residential disturbance in the town.
Officers located the vehicle, which had been reported stolen in New Hampshire, stopped in the driveway of another residence in Windham.
At gunpoint, officers ordered Figueroa, who was the driver, out of the vehicle and removed a loaded revolver from his coat pocket.
The investigation was conducted by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the Windham, Maine Police Department.
